About me
As long as I can remember, I’ve always enjoyed learning. Whether that’s researching topics I find interesting, building and troubleshooting computers, diving head first into Linux systems, or learning circuit design; I have always enjoyed learning new concepts and applying that knowledge.
After working in kitchens and other customer service positions for years, I felt that I needed a change of pace so I decided to enroll in the Backend Engineering program at Turing School of Software and Design. My time in customer service taught me how to efficiently work as a team by communicating effectively in stressful fast paced environments, all while keeping my head cool. As a software developer, the skills I learned in the restaurant industry as well as my passion for learning will propel me forward in my career as I learn new technologies and work with a team to deliver a quality product.
When I'm not writing code, I spend my time listening to music, playing the drums, toying with synthesizers, learning blacksmithing, and fabricating various things with my 3D printers.

The LGBTQ+ community faces unique challenges when it comes to finding safe and welcoming shelters, especially for youth. Our app aims to bridge this information gap by allowing community members to submit safe shelter information through our app, which is then added to an API that we are building. Additionally, users can leave reviews based on their experiences at these shelters to provide valuable insight for those seeking safe and inclusive shelter options.
